Additional Information
Fundraisings
On 22 May 2018, following receipt of shareholder approval at the Company’s general meeting
held on 21 May 2018, the Company announced, inter alia, the completion of an equity
fundraising, comprising a placing and subscription, raising, in aggregate, approximately £1
million (before expenses), through the issue of, in aggregate, 1,739,130,435 new ordinary
shares at a price of 0.0575 pence per share (the “Fundraising”). In addition, the Company
announced the issue of certain options and, in aggregate, 55,345,793 new ordinary shares to
certain of the Company’s directors in lieu of outstanding fees at the same price as the shares
issued pursuant to the Fundraising.
The Fundraising provided sufficient financing and general working capital to enable the
Company to progress the resource delineation and commissioning of an initial scoping study
in respect of the Company’s Toral Project. The net proceeds from the Fundraising have been
utilised towards the completion of all key phase 1 activities for 2018, including:
- commissioning of an initial scoping study including establishing first economic
parameters;
2
- extension drilling to the east of the main defined ore resource area seeking to
identify further mineralisation along strike, with the combination rig and associated
operating crew scheduled to be mobilised to site during August 2018; and
- metallurgical and mineralogical analysis to progress the Company’s understanding
of likely saleable concentrates from a full future mining operation.
Post quarter end, on 27 July 2018, the Company announced that it had conditionally raised,
in aggregate, approximately £563,516 (before expenses), through a placement of
727,118,650 Placing Shares at an issue price of 0.0775 pence per share. The Placing was
arranged by Turner Pope, as agent of the Company, with certain new and existing investors
and utilised the Company’s existing share capital authorities.
The net proceeds secured from the Placing will be utilised towards funding a planned phase 2
work programme at the Toral Project (leading to the eventual completion of a proposed
feasibility study), as well as providing additional general working capital for the Group.
Following the completion of the phase 1 extension drilling, phase 2 activities at the Toral
Project will be centred around a new diamond infill drill programme, focused distinctly within
the existing inferred ore body. Such additional exploration drilling will target the higher-grade
areas of the Toral Project, with the objective of seeking to increase and enhance the
Company's understanding of its existing maiden JORC 2012 compliant resource estimate and
complete certain key components required for a planned full feasibility study in due course.
